I am going to call Howard and see if I can get his audience behind our effort to keep Steve on at 4-7 pm est
I wonder if Howard's Dad listens to ATR. Bring it up if you somehow get on the air.

Yeah, Ben Stern goes to Belmont or Aqueduct every day that they race. He's a big racetrack fan...Howard has mentioned it many times on his show.

Yeah but he can't hear thunder so I doubt he listens to the show.

He used to go to Aqueduct every day though I can't recall seeing him in a while.

Just keep repeating BABABOOIE a bunch of times. That might help the cause.

There was some kind of "fight" show on and I turned it off. I came in to check emails and decided to look on XM's channel lineup, and 243 says "More Programs Coming Soon!" Scrolling through the channels I came upon 226 which shows ATR at its regular 4-7 slot, and I got excited. Is it too much to hope that I'll be able to listen this afternoon/evening?

edit: Never mind. It looks like internet streaming and replays for me!

LATEST UPDATE (Friday 6/11):

Sirius is preparing the new contract and are looking to finalize things as quickly as possible. I'll guess it will take another week, so look for the 'new' show starting Monday, June 21 (Best guess)...

4-7pm Internet broadcasts with streaming and archives has been going on all week and will continue until the new airtime starts. The 9am-12n slot will be the broadcast time with previous day's replays running from 6a-9a...

Thanks to everybody for the overwhelming support. While 4-7p has become a ritual for me as well, I'm happy to do ATR 9a-12n and hope everyone will find a way to enjoy the show through modern technological methods. You can receive podcasts via Email, catch the Stream 24/7/365 or pick off specific hours on the Archive, and I'm working on a new web portal that will be designed to make ATR and DT even more enjoyable and easier to access.
